Would be cool if I could organize my subs list into a tree, there's a lot of them!

[RFC] Thoughts on Combining Comments for Crossposts?

Disclaimer: If this isn't in the spirit of the community, feel free to remove the post and I'll re-post it in my app-specific community. I'm posting it here since it's a feature that I'm thinking through that may eventually make it into the Lemmy app I develop, and the people here would probably have good ideas/opinions on the...

I think the devs want comments to be specific to the community in order to retain the culture of each community.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4225#issuecomment-1904443026

Combining comments is out, because these are different posts that live on different communities, each with their own members and mod policies.

Lemmy-ui already has a "post-deduplicator" that simplifies viewing cross-posts on the same page, that should probably be replicated in a lot of UIs. But that seems to me the best way to handle it.

This comment is another way to explain the issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4225#issuecomment-1837522660

This would be a bad user experience for certain communities. Imagine the same news article is posted in /c/cars and /c/fuckcars. It is not desired nor expected to have all comments combined.

But I do think there may be some room for combined comments, like when Lemmy has a method to group communities, maybe those comments could be combined from the grouped communities.

The fediverse won’t succeed at putting up a substitute and that’s a problem?

Just an impression: All the pieces seem to be there. But what’s required is a team, with devs, PMs and coordinators, dedicated to making a particular place in the .

That’s resources and decently sized financial and organisational demands, especially to get a critical mass of users.

Is the fediverse up to that challenge? If not, is it an issue worth addressing?

IDK if we're really missing any software features, but I feel like it's a good opportunity for a Lemmy plugin

Any interest in hosting q&a style programming communities?

You can edit post titles on Lemmy, so yeah we could just put [unanswered] and [answered] in the title

Die4Ever ,
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

now that Lemmy is working on supporting plugins soon, I think this could all be done inside Lemmy

Die4Ever ,
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

I'm still most excited about the ongoing work on plugin support

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4695

would you say this belongs in the 0.20.0 milestone? or is it too soon?

Die4Ever ,
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

I think that's https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4623

which is part of the milestone for v0.19.5

Die4Ever , (edited )
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

Especially with Lemmy getting support for plugins soon, I don't see the need for making a new platform

A new sorting method for "unanswered" is a cool idea. I'm not sure if it's quite as simple as just finding posts with 0 comments, because people can put additional questions in the comments but it's still unanswered. Also how do you sort them for posts with the same number of comments/answers. But this is definitely something that a plugin could handle.

I saw someone else suggested we could just put "[unanswered]" in the title and then edit the title to "[answered]"

  • Silent Hill - cozy horror block
  • Ecco: The Tides of Time - I love the Ecco games
  • Sonic Project 06 - is an amazing mod for a crappy game lol
  • Sonic Robo Blast 2 - always fun, maybe the actual best 3d Sonic game ever made lol
  • Doom 64 - it's Doom, come on
  • Virtual Boy Wario Land - omg someone is gonna speedrun a Virtual Boy game lol
  • StarCraft: Brood War - SC speedruns are really interesting
  • Halo 3 - 4 player co-op on Legendary
  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - All Dungeons (Swordless) - these types of longer glitched categories of LttP are great, they usually show off a wide variety of glitches

once this bug is fixed you'll be able to do it with export/import settings

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4672

unless you're ok with all your user settings being copied over, including profile description and subscribed communities

a pretty simple plugin idea would be a regex to validate post titles, deny the post if the title is invalid

I might try it unless someone else beats me to it

I guess to start with it could be a config file with a dictionary of community name: regex

and later it could be made to use the database with an api to set the regexes, could even allow community moderators to set their own regexes (might need a maximum regex length, maximum number of parenthesis/groups in the regex pattern, and disable lookbehind/lookahead, for performance reasons)

Die4Ever , (edited )
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

Just saying it's an easy one to start with to get familiar with the system

And yeah it could be used to verify "tags" in the title, or require you put the year for something like a movie title or game, like (1993)

also my comment kicked off a little discussion in here, so that's nice too

Or use Cloudflare (properly)

Then they aren't using it properly

harder to get volunteers if it's not on git.

I'm not sure if this was your intention, but Git is not an appropriate abbreviation for GitHub. GitHub uses Git. It's kinda like PornHub -> porn, it's a hub for a thing.

The common abbreviation for GitHub is GH, but it's not a great unique abbreviation so the context needs to be clear.

Your comment is spot on though, I agree that's definitely a concern.

Really awesome movie. I saw it twice in theaters, need to watch it again at home soon

@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

awesome, I hope this can bring more devs on board

also I think we should organize behind a single GitHub tag, like

release order is the way this series hooked the world, that's the most likely way for it to hook your friends too

If it's not working in Photon, you could try a different frontend, like a mobile app. I think Jerboa and Boost can do it

reminds me of this article https://www.ign.com/articles/godzilla-minus-one-did-vfx-the-90s-way-and-thats-why-it-won-an-oscar

about how the director of Godzilla Minus One (Takashi Yamazaki) actually appreciates the art of CGI/VFX, and that's part of why they won the Oscar

And I guess if Reddit was ActivityPub that would be good too

Does Lemmy instance server software already allow for plugins or extensions

Wait how does a kart racing game have a half hour tutorial? Lol

Die4Ever ,
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

Boost can do this

Also I did suggest a tweak to the hot rank for comments, I do feel like Hot is ok for posts but not for comments

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4471

@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

tl;dr: apps should login with the username die4ever@programming.dev similar to email, instead of choosing instance programming.dev and then typing in die4ever for username separately

yea that probably would be simpler, I'm sure some apps already do this

If they're in the wheels that means they're unsprung weight, which is worse than sprung weight. So even if they've achieved the exact same weight, moving that weight from sprung to unsprung makes the car worse.

Which frontend/app are you using? I'm referencing the official lemmy-ui website frontend but it doesn't work in all apps

Die4Ever ,
@Die4Ever@programming.dev avatar

what client are you using? new lines are important in Markdown formatting, and each spoiler needs a title, let me try editing your comment

EDIT I’m not sure how to spoiler tag apparently, so read at your own peril

Easter eggs I’ve noticed so far:

That’s a sling ring portal

The ______

Ant-Man helmet

is actually _____

his whole corpse, as you can see his arms fanning out beside his skull, his skull under the helmet when it opens, and you can see that when DP and Deadpool jump into the Sling ring portal it is through the skull’s eye socket

You can see ______

Azazel and Lady Deathstrike

in the group shot of the thugs around 1:52

and maaaaaaaybe ___________

X-23 in costume

on the far right

The shop in the background during the slomo walk is _____________

Liefield’s Just Feet

I'm still having the same issue. Tried unsubscribing and resubscribing and it's still pending. Did you test on lemmy.ml? Because they're on 0.19.4 Beta so maybe something was fixed there. I can check again when my instance updates.
